Examples disclosed herein relate to a method comprising detecting a plurality of changes in a database, wherein the database is used to configure a switch operating traffic on a network. The method may include determining that a subset of the plurality of changes are to be deferred before being used to configure the switch, wherein each change in the subset has a potential dependency with at least one other change in the subset. The method may also include iterating through each change in the subset. The iteration may include confirming that a target change has a dependency with another change in the subset, resolving the dependency and transmitting the target change to an object manager for configuration of the switch.

A radio frequency identification (RFID) transceiver may be associated with an identification proximity to identify an RFID tag associated with a component. A control may determine proper inflation of component based on the RFID tag being identified.

Proper installation determination based on RFID

A fan of a computing system is associated with a performance characteristic. It may be determined whether a component associated with the computing system is installed based on the performance characteristic.

Determine installation of components based on performance characteristics

A computer system has extensible firmware interface firmware. The EFI firmware loads incomplete virtual boot data from a resource manager and then completes the boot data. The completed boot data is used to find an operating-system image to boot. The complete virtual boot data is transferred to the resource manager.

Systems, methods and computing components are provided for dynamically reallocating a plurality of computing components among one or more logical partitions. A first computing component that is allocated to a first partition may have a management processor. A second computing component may be allocated to a second partition. The management processor of the first computing component may be configured to reallocate the first computing component to a third partition without affecting the second computing component.

A method for notification of an error in data exchanged for an application between a client computer telnet and a server computer telnet is disclosed. The error is detected. A message corresponding to the error is generated such that the error message is separate from the data. The error message is handled such that it has priority over the data.

Method for notification of an error in data exchanged between a client and a server

Systems, methods and computing components are provided for allocating a plurality of computing components among one or more logical partitions. Each of the plurality of computing components may have a management processor that is configured to assume a role among management processors of a partition. Each management processor may then cooperate with other management processors of the partition to control resources of the partition.

Method and apparatus of separating packets. Specifically, a method of separating data packets in a memory buffer is disclosed. The method locates a memory buffer containing a pre-selected address at a buffer header of the memory buffer. A first data packet containing the buffer header is separated from a remaining part of the memory buffer. The first data packet is associated with a first packet length. The method then searches the remaining part of the memory buffer to locate a plurality of packet headers associated with a plurality of concatenated data packets. Each of the plurality of packet headers contains the pre-selected address. The method then separates the plurality of concatenated data packets, that is associated with a plurality of concatenated packet lengths, for processing.

A method of establishing an encrypted session. An identifier is sent from a first node to a second node via a first connection. Either an encryption algorithm or an identifier of the encryption algorithm is also sent to the second node. The second node is also sent either an encryption key or an identifier of the encryption key. A command is received on a second connection indicating that an encrypted session is desired. In response to receiving a command including the identifier via the second connection, the encrypted session is established, using the encryption algorithm.

Techniques for configuring network parameters to a device are disclosed. In an embodiment, the device is a service processor that provides administrative capabilities to another device and that does not include a terminal. The network parameters include a network address, and configuring is done over a network. A user, from a configuring machine, sends a packet including the to-be-assigned address and the identifier of the configured device to the network. To acquire the packet and thus the address, the configured device regularly checks the network for the packet having the device's identifier. Having acquired the address, the device configures itself, and, to confirm that the address has been configured, the device generates a response to the configuring machine. Once the device is configured with the address, the device disables the automatic configuration feature until the device is in an un-configured state.
